As an entomologist with a focus on insect development, I can tell you that ladybugs, also known as ladybird beetles, do not appear with spots when they are first born. They hatch from eggs as small, pale, and almost spotless larvae. As they grow and molt (shed their exoskeleton), they gradually develop the characteristic spots that we associate with ladybugs. The number and pattern of spots can vary depending on the species and even within the same species, as different environmental factors can influence their development.

However, ladybugs even have stripes or no spots at all! You may think ladybugs are born with spots, but that's not the case. There are many stages of a ladybug's life. The ladybug starts its life off as an egg.
